The Civil Engineering global PBL in Toyosu has entered its ninth day.
On the ninth day of the Civil Engineering Global PBL, the final presentation was held, where each of the 10 groups had 15 minutes to present the results of their group activities in English. From the causes of flooding in Japan, Thailand, and Vietnam and the differences in their countermeasure technologies to landslide in each country, each group skillfully summarized the knowledge they had gained through the global PBL and the research they had conducted during this. Today, on the ninth day, all the major programs of the global PBL have been completed, but we hope that the exchanges and friendships among the participating students from different countries will be further deepened through this opportunity.
# The global PBL in Civil Engineering is a program involving approximately 130 civil engineering students from Shibaura Institute of Technology, Kasetsart University, Asian Institute of Technology, King Mongkut’s University of Technology Thonburi, and Hanoi University of Civil Engineering. The program will explore disaster prevention and mitigation technologies as a countermeasure to natural hazards (earthquakes, torrential rains, etc.) common to Japan, Thailand, and Vietnam, as well as how infrastructure technologies should be developed to achieve the Goal 11 of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), “Make cities inclusive, safe, resilient and sustainable.
